Abstract
We present a time dependent analytic solution for subsonic flow of gas around a massless particle in general relativity. The gas obeys a stiff adiabatic equation of state. Unlike the case of a plane infinitely extended gravitational wave, the motion of the gas particles disturbed by a plane fronted gravitational wave produced by a massless particle does not result in divergent focusing.
